Greetings! Happy New Year! I wanted to report the malfunction of the geofilter, I try to force the servers very far from me with ping 110+ (American servers) with 0 results. Xr500v2.3.2.134

Happy New Year! It's not really a malfunction as that is an unintended benefit but probably settings/setup based Try this:

  1. Quit the application/game/client completely
  2. Remove device from the Geo-Filter
  3. Give PC PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager (if on PC)
  4. Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu
  5. Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter with the manual option
  6. Set up the Geo-Filter how you like
  7. Wait 2 minutes
  8. Boot up application/game/client

Then see if it works.

American server tests: -if I go to play in America with the geofilter it takes ages/ it doesn't find them, I play cross off from PS5 (error found in the filter: if I set the filter radius above 1800km it doesn't work, if I cover all of America it doesn't work) - if instead I go to America with the VPN, 2 seconds and it finds the games, I always did the cross off test (both identical ping but with the VPN I have the negative point of data loss) I would like to play normally on these servers as I always have but I can't with this new warzone, geofilter configuration: I delete the profile, synchronize, add the PS5 and do it manually

Don't forget, forcing servers the other side of the world isn't the intended function of the Geo-Filter so it's not guaranteed, also if your ping is potentially too high the game may just reject you. Are you setting up the Geo-Filter prior to booting the game/console?

Factory reset or re-adding the device to the router that was deleted from the Device Manager - the one that was added to Traffic Prioritization. You'd have to add it back exactly so via same method, same name/device type

I haven't added/deleted any devices (I'm aware of that bug) can you tell me when there will be a new official firmware for xr500?

You'll need to factory reset then, it's the only solution. Official I don't know as that is entirely up to Netgear

I tried to search for the games closest to me, the result is like the American one (which I finally made work by setting the filter with the drawings) using the circle I notice a malfunction, it doesn't connect to the servers / it finds two games and goes into block no longer finds the games, (removing it continues to find the chosen server), I delete the profile/sync/add ps5/manual/ and nothing with the circle no longer works for me like it used to

Can you provide a screenshot of what you're seeing when it happens please?

I tried both geofilters but lately they no longer work, the blocked servers appear on the map and those where I want to play correctly, when I start the game the server that I am about to connect to but without result appears on the map, I am unable to enter it, others sometimes it doesn't block the ping and continues to go up and other times it doesn't let me access the game at all

Some servers like the Italian one are really hard to force as they don't seem to be always available so it would be best to cover a few servers so you allow the game more options
